| Lafora's disease | A form of progressive myoclonus epilepsy beginning from age 6 to 19; characterised by generalised tonic-clonic seizures, resting and action myoclonus, ataxia, dementia, and classic EEG findings, including polyspike and wave discharges; basophilic cytoplasmic inclusion bodies present in portions of the brain, the liver, and skin, as well as the duct cells of the sweat glands. Death usually occurs within 10 years of onset; autosomal recessive inheritance. Synonym: Lafora's disease. (05 Mar 2000) |

| Lafora body | An intraneural intracytoplasmic inclusion body composed of acid mucopolysaccharides, seen in familial myoclonus epilepsy; a recessive trait. (05 Mar 2000) |

| Lafora's disease |
A progressive myoclonic encephalopathy (PME) that is inherited as an autosomal recessive trait. Associated symptoms typically begin in childhood or early adolescence and include frequent seizures characterized by loss of consciousness and rhythmic contraction and relaxation of all muscle groups (generalized tonic-clonic seizures); sudden, involuntary, "shock-like" muscle jerks (myoclonus); and rapidly progressive deterioration of thought processing and acquired intellectual abilities ...
